Windows 10: RemoteFX

Hello,I've been running in a problem with remoteFX.

So I followed this answer and disabled remoteFX in GPO. The last st

RemoteFX nooby questions

I hope to get a desktop soon to replace my laptop. I like the power I could get with a desktop but also would like the portability of a laptop or tablet (yes, I know that sounds moronic). I began wondering if it was possible to use a second device (windows
laptop or tablet) as a screen for my desktop, but while away from home, so I looked into the Remote Desktop Connection service that Windows offers. Unfortunately, from what I read, I came to understand that when accessing your desktop through a Remote Desktop
Connection, it doesn't utilize your graphics card but instead reverts to the graphics built into your cpu. But then I read that remoteFX is a solution to this. I know next to nothing about this so everything I say may come out as incredibly over simplified
or moronic, but please bear with me on this. As far as my questions go:

• Does my desktop need to act as a server (by that I mean use Windows Server OS) to utilize remoteFX or
• can a desktop with good hardware running the standard version of Windows 10 utilize remoteFX?
• Do I need a specific graphics card (something that supports vGPU) or
• will most newer graphics cards work? (I hope to get a gtx 980ti, gtx 980, or at the very least a gtx 970)

IN SUMMARY what my questions boil down to, is it possible for a high-end, standard desktop running Windows 10 to utilize remoteFX without any special modifications and if they are needed, what would the modifications be?

Other questions I have:

• What exactly are Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2012? Are they operating systems?
• Is what I'm describing more of a virtualization scenario or a remote access situation?
• If I'm simply using another device as a second screen, would it be possible for a Windows tablet to handle this?

Thanks for dealing with my noobishness and if you see any other misconceptions I hold, please correct me. Thanks again!

Hi

I would like to know if the current version of windows phone supports RDP 7.1...i.e. if I can initiate a RemoteFX connection with a Windows 7 VM on Hyper-V...

Thanks
